May SAT 2011: Math Section

<p>it said consecutive more towards the beginning of the prompt i think</p>

<p>was it .3% or .03%?</p>

<p>For the pyramid it was the midpoint of the edges, hence the connecting turned out to be the similar square with the same orientation inside of the base, correct?</p>

<p>Well my friend who I took the SAT with said he read the question very closely and it didn’t say consecutive…he claims it said “the sum of three different prime numbers is n” or something to that effect… This is really annoying me because I want to know if I potentially got an 800 or a 780</p>

<p>Yeah, I’d be surprised if I just made up consecutive unless one of the other consecutive numbers question was right before it… Started with 5 because 3 5 7 didn’t work. </p>

<p>Gah so ****ed about the A and V one…</p>

<p>is anyone making the list? And for the 165 answer I remember reading it twice because at first I thought it said consecutive too, but it just asked for the least sum.</p>

<p>What was the pyramid??? Consensus???</p>

<p>@XiKingix yeah to the square with the same orientation</p>

<p>omg copy paste the consolidated… this is the most pathetic SAT showing i have seen yet… and i think you guys are right about the consecutive integers thing. it appeared in the question but i don’t think it said consecutive primes.</p>

<p>Consolidated:</p>

<p>1.Pyramid…C (square inside square, both in the same orientation).
2.ab and A+B… y/x
3.v and A … a^(3/2)
4.prime numbers 3,5,11 = 165
5. graph: x+h) k … f(0)=-5</p>

<p>the square was crooked though, I remember, and it touched all sides (midpoints or the sides). One of the choices only had it stop in the middle.</p>

<p>I put the square. But, why not the X?</p>

<p>Think about what you guys are arguing over? Who really cares that much about one problem, instead focus on more important things like world hunger.</p>

<p>^pleaseeeee</p>

<p>@NspiredOne</p>

<p>To the question 3 pages or so ago. I think A was 0.03% and 0.3% was B. Not 100% sure but i definitely put 0.3%.</p>

<p>well etennis some have said that the x is not possible because the question stipulated that the lines were drawn across the faces of the pyramid…which would result in a square within a square</p>

<p>It was 0.3%. 0.02<em>0.05</em>3=0.003=0.3%.</p>

<p>I didn’t read consecutive, hope it wasn’t there since I got the coffee one wrong.</p>

<p>And the pyramid was square w/in a square I think. The lines were across the faces.</p>

<p>^how did it say that? I need to kno these questions in case I want to cancel.</p>

<p>It was .3% (you got on your calculator a value of .003 but then convert it to a percentage).</p>

<p>And the positive/prime number grid-in one was 165. I’m POSITIVE!</p>

<p>For the one that asked for the combinations of the numbers like 3, 6, 7, and 8: did anyone get 12? Isn’t it 4 * 3 = 12?</p>

<p>guys i’m 110% sure that the answer is n=165 cause i remember that i ALMOST got tricked by that. i put 385 but the question did NOT say that the numbers had to be consecutive primes so i quickly erased and put 165. i believe the question MENTIONED the word somewhere along there to trip some people up (which it obviously did) but i’m pretty confident that it’s 165</p>

<p>What’s the point in canceling?</p>
